A frequent complaint of the new JavaScript skipping code in 3.1.6's
HTML.cc parser is that it gets confused by a "<" in the JavaScript
code, causing it to miss the closing </script> tag. Here is a patch
that fixes this problem. As far as I can tell, it works right and
doesn't break anything else, but of course I'd appreciate some other
testers for this. Apply it using "patch -p0 < this-message-file".

This patch should also work fine with 3.2.0b4 snapshots on or after
Sunday, August 2, 2001.
